Modern competitive tennis is played on polyester strings, and the SOLINCO Tour Bite Soft 16g(1.30mm) from Solinco is a serious entry in that category. Designed for competitive players who want a poly setup that holds together through heavy training blocks and back-to-back match days — delivering consistent spin and control rather than going dead after the first hitting session.
At 16g gauge, the string generates rotation on groundstrokes that keeps balls heavy, deep, and difficult to attack. Tension maintenance is solid for a polyester construction: the response stays consistent across the string bed rather than degrading in the predictable way that cheaper poly alternatives do after moderate use. Impact has the firm, defined quality that lets technically confident players shape shots with intention — the flat ball down the line, the heavy topspin angle, the precise short-angle return — all responding to what the player intends rather than adding random energy to the contact.
Best suited to intermediate to advanced players with full, committed groundstrokes who hit through the ball. Players with shorter, more conservative swings may find sustained stiffness uncomfortable — a hybrid setup with a softer multifilament or synthetic cross is a practical solution for that player profile. Restring every three to six weeks depending on playing frequency and arm sensitivity.
